Anew Words With Boys About Beer.

Rev. j. NJ. Van Buren, says in the Youths
Temperance Banner:
"A few days since l was talking with a
gentleman, an invalid. who wanted to know
whot to Go to get his strength. He thought
that beer must be very strengthening, as it
was made of | ariey and had the substance of
the barley i'll it. He seemed much surprised
when | tod him that was not the oh 'ect in
making beer, to have the substance Ct the
barley in it, and that the only purpose for
which the barley was used was to convert the
starch in 1t into sugar, and ferment this sugar
and make alcohol. This ic called glucose, or
grape sugar. All the alcohol used for drink
ing is made in this way. Whether the alcohol
is in beer, or wine, or brandy, or whisky, the
only difference is, there is more in brandy
and IN whisky than in wine and beer.
But, you saw, how. is the starch changed
into sugar. To understand this YOU must
know that sugar and starch are composed of
the same elements of matter. There are
oxygen, hydrogen, and carbon, only in diff
ferent proportions. The two clements OF
which water IS compOSed-oxygen and HYDRO
~gen-united with these in starch, change it
into sugar. This is done by sprouting the
barley. Every grain or seed has starch In it;
that turns into sugar when it sprouts. by ab-
sorb'ng the moisture or water in the ground.
The barley is sprouted for this purpose. 1t is
put in heaps on a floor, kept warm, and wet
with water. After it is sprouted it is dried,
and the sprouts are taken off; it is then
cTu>ned ana 1erinente1 IN warm water. and
the sugar is changed into alcohol. This makes
beer intoxicating. The remainder of the
barley Is sold to feed cattle.
But there IS something elst u Ter besides
alcohol and water. There is id. &c quantity
of hops used The substance extracted from
the hops causes beer TO produce q slet py feel
ing, and gives it its bitter taste. The beer
drlnker has VIC appetites: one for intoxicat-
Ing effects of alcohol, and another for the
narcotic effects OF the hops. Ii ne takes
plenty of it, one makes him drunk, the other
makes him stupid.
AS to nutrlment, or anything to give
strength, there is none of that. The little
particles of the barley are separated and set
tied, to make the liquor look clear and fine
Drinking beer takes away the strength; it
don't give any. Where much is usel, as it is
by those engaged in making it. it shortens q
mans life, The Germania Life Insurance
takes off five years, and insnres only the best
cases. Those who drink much beer look thick
and full this is chilled her hloat. If taken
With sickness they often die suddenly. They
have not the Chance of recovery that other
men have.
Rovs. have nothing % rith beer if Won
want to be healthy and i ~ and live many
years. If You o@ce get the appetite It won't
be easy tn get rid Of it. 1t is worse than
whisky; it causes two appetites, and is more
deadening in its effects on all the functions of
tho body.

A New Boiler House.

Immediately in the rear of the Glad
stone hotel is being erected the new boil
er house which will contain boilers of
sufficient capacity to not only heat thor
oughly the hotel building, but to furnish
heat to several other stores in the vicini-
ty. The hotel Office, dining room, halls,
and most Of the sleeping rooms will con-
tain radiators, and the advantage and
saving over stoves is said to be very great
The reduction of insurance and comfort
of guests are also items of great impor-
tance to be obtained by the steam heat
ers.
The boiler house itself will be built
entirely of stone and will be4Ox35, '.large
enough to heat the new opera house
when built on Front street. said Mr..
Klaus with cheerful twinkle in his eye.
In the boiler room will be placed the
electric light plant, and whether the Edi-
son, or some other system is to be used
will be known in day or so. The
hotel certainly, aud other buildings
no doubt will be lighted from this sta
ton. Mr.. Klaus is a builder from way
back, and is never better satisfied than
when seeing some substantial and hand
some improvement going up for the ben
eft of jamestown.

Another Hunting Accident.

Albert Pike, of Chicago, who with his
wife and two sons are spending week or
so hunting in this vicinity, was near
Windsor yesterday duck1ng. He was ac-
companied by his sons and Capt. Cowen
of this place, who was acting as guide.
During the afternoon Frank Pike, the
elder son, received a portion of the con-
tents of shell on the right arm and face,
one shot entering the eye. He came in
to the Gladstone last evening and was
attended by DR.. DePuy. The accident is
not considered as serious injury to the
eyesight nor believed to be permanent.
Mr.. Cowen's gun was the unlucky firearm
that did the mischief.
Capt. Mcclellan, of Pittsburg, Pa,
who is also at the hotel with his eyes
bandaged from another unlucky charge
of shot, is dong nicely. The injury to
his eyes is rapidly diminishing, and as
the swelling is reduced the brighter the
prospects become for complete restora-
tion of eyesight. His many friends will
be glad to learn of his speedy recovery.
